her husband, felt jealous watching it. But what could he do He had already arranged for support from outside, but Xi'er said that these were Yao Clan members and she was the Saintess of the Yao Clan....Feng Ling Xi's words caused Dugu Cheng to furrow his brow, "Xi'er, are you trying to get this King to divert the enemy forces to Dugu Yan"

"At this point, are you still thinking about taking the blame for Dugu Yan Besides, we're not saying we're giving up the Great Yuan Dynasty. We just want Dugu Yan to know that it is her responsibility to protect this land."

Feng Lingxi's words ignited a wave of dissatisfaction with the court among the generals. They chimed in, "Your Highness, we agree with your Consort's words. Why should you serve this ungrateful court For years, Your Highness has fought on the battlefield for them, risking your life for their sake. What have they given you in return We believe your Consort's plan is excellent."

"The last general also thinks that the queen's plan is excellent. Not only can it make the court see the situation clearly, but it can also take this opportunity to recuperate."

Dugu Cheng frowned, "Xier's words are reasonable, but how can you be sure they will turn around and attack the imperial court instead of us"

Feng Lingxi, seeing his doubtful gaze, retorted, "If it were you, my lord, would you attack the invincible War God or the helpless imperial court These small nations are not fools. Although you only have half the military power of the court in your hands now, your abilities are well-known to them. On the other hand, without your support, the imperial court will undoubtedly be worried once the cities fall. They will send people to defend, and we only need to stay here comfortably and recuperate."

"Xi'er, is this a plan to have the praying mantis catch the cicada while the yellow bird waits behind"

Dugu Cheng narrowed his eyes, looking at Feng Lingxi's shrewdness in her eyes. Seeing her smile, he understood her intention.

"Could it be that Your Highness still intends to keep this dynasty safe for Dugu Yan If he can't hold onto the Great Yuan Dynasty, then you will have to take his place."

Feng Lingxi's words sent a shiver through the generals present. This was the queen wanting her husband to usurp the throne.

However, they like it.

Du Gucheng didn't speak. He understood Xi'er's meaning, but given the current situation, it was probably too late.

"Spreading the word will take time, and now that we are stuck in Liu Xi County, it will be difficult to do so."

"This is easy, find someone to spread the word in Linxi County. These small countries won't attack directly for a while. Once they realize we disregard the imperial court, they will naturally go and break into Linxi County."

Feng Lingxi's proposal made Dugu Cheng frown. "War between the two countries will only hurt the common people. If we abandon Linxi County, the people of Linxi County will suffer."

Dugu City's worry was still the people, but the imperial court only wanted to kill him.

"My lord, why don't I take a trip myself and go to Xicun County While Your Lordship and the Lady hold back Galloc's army here, once news gets out, their main force will head straight for Xicun County." General Li suggested, looking at Dugu City. "I am familiar with Xicun County, I can lead a detachment of men along a shortcut."

"If the Kingdom of Garrow is to fight the King, how will it go about it"

Sun, the deputy general, voiced his concern, "Now that His Royal Highness is seriously injured, if he were to be discovered by the Gallo Kingdom, these other small countries would surely not miss this opportunity. They would certainly seize every chance to kill His Royal Highness."

"If you want to kill the prince, you'd better see if they have the ability to get close to Liu Xi County."

Feng Lingxi's beautiful eyes sank slightly, and the confidence in her tone made all the generals light up. "Does the princess have a plan"

"Defend but do not attack."

Windling looked at them, "Since we cannot attack, then we shall defend."

All the generals looked worried. "My Lady, defending this place won't be easy. If we suffer heavy losses, it would be better to fight them head-on."

"No, I have an idea. Just trust me on this, generals."

All the generals looked at each other, glancing at Feng Lingxi. As a mere woman, how could they possibly believe her

"Just follow Xi'er's suggestion. General Li should go to Linxi County for a trip, and we will prepare for battle here. Even if General Li spreads the word and fails to lure them away, it will still be a good way to distract them."

General Li immediately stood up and said to Duke Duguxing, "Your Majesty, this general will go now."

"General Li, please be careful. After you release the statement, return immediately."

Dugu Cheng instructed, General Li responded and led a contingent away.

"General Zhang, you lead a detachment of troops to the rear pass of Liu Xi County. Secure both sides of the river with ropes and prevent the enemy from crossing."

"The last general will obey."

General Zhang received his orders and then looked at General Wu, "General Wu, you will guard the mountain valley above. Prepare to ambush with boulders. Make sure to keep a close watch on both entrances of the valley, don't be careless."

"The last general will obey."

After General Zhang received his orders, Sun, the deputy general, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, what about me"

獨孤城 looked at Sun, his deputy general, "Your wounds are not yet healed, and you are still guarding the city."

"My Lord, my injuries are almost healed. Perhaps I could assist General Zhang in guarding the mountain pass"

"As long as there's Lei Song, it'll be enough."

Dugu City looked at Sun, the deputy general's, eyes full of loss, "Sun, the deputy general, defending the city is also very important."

"The subordinate understands."

Sun, the vice general, was given the command, but he still felt a little disappointed.

"My lord, would you be so kind as to send someone to help me"

"Your Highness, how about I lend you a hand"

General Sun hurriedly accepted the order. Seeing Feng Lingxi looking at the King, General Sun hurriedly said, "Your Highness, there are other generals guarding the city. This general believes that what the Princess is doing is far more important than defending the city."

"My Lord, allow General Sun to help me as well. I need a large amount of medicinal herbs, and General Sun would be just the person to assist."

Dugu City looked at Sun Fubing's eyes full of joy, "Then listen to Xier, let Sun Fubing go help you."

Feng Ling xi nodded, watching as Dugu Cheng frowned. She reminded him, "Tell me the first thing you know if something happens over at the valley."

Dugu Cheng responded with a nod, gazing at the weariness on her face, his eyes filled with concern.

"Xier, you should rest for a while first. There's still some time."

Xiaoli said she stayed up all night and is here now, her dark circles are showing.

Feng Ling Xi knew he was worried about her, but she just couldn't sleep right now.

"I'll tell them to sort out the herbs in a bit, then I'm going to sleep."

Feng Lingxi left with General Sun, and only then did Dugu City call Ye Xi to his side to discuss strategies for defending against the enemy.

"Xiao Li, did the prince ask you about what happened last night"

When Xiao Li was called out, her body stiffened. She hurriedly apologized, "Your Highness, I was just worried that you hadn't slept all night last night and would be unwell, so..."

"Later, you should take General Sun with you to organize the medicinal herbs and see how many we can use, just in case."

Wind Lingxi ordered, writing a prescription for Xiao Li. Looking at the medicinal herbs on the prescription, Xiao Li had a general idea. The princess's medicinal materials were all sorted by her, and she was most familiar with the medicinal materials on it.

"Your Highness, these medicinal herbs are running low. Given the current circumstances, it would be difficult to transport more from Lin County."mother."Feng Siyu nodded, his little face full of determination, "Grandpa, if you have any new martial arts, feel free to teach me. Siyu is not afraid of hardship or fatigue.""Not bad." Yuan Xiu, the...
